1. I Made It: the result of 3 days' setup, ready to receive!
I was nervous about how everything would work out, logistically - but it all fell into place - my pallets were there; my UPS packages arrived at a friend's; even the 2 flats I put into my carry-on were intact (2 pieces broke, out of hundreds now being showcased). I'm really happy with the configuration of
my tables, I have a comfortable table I sit at, and I even brought a few floor mats to make the ground less tough on my feet. Now into day 2, I'm getting a sense of the audience, and loving when they appreciate my offerings. Two days down and 8 to go. By my next newsletter, I'll have a pretty good read on what it's like selling in Denver. Email me (or Reply) with questions, learn more about the event at www.DenverGem.show

3. Veteran Crystal King: "it's all about the grading!"
I've always admired his company: Starborn Creations - but this time I met him, the owner Arne - who explains in this video how he got into rocks as a kid, and turned his passion into a (big) business. What I found particularly interesting is that he echoes my own experience - which is that most of this
business is about grading, categorizing, making sure everything is priced right. Learn more about the latest show - happening Sept. 5-14 - at www.DenverGem.show or email Kyle@CrystalConcentrics.com Â
4. Perspective: (some current thoughts on Life)Â
 Feeling optimistic, at the start of my Denver vending experience - days are long, 9 hours for 10 days in a row - but I'm already making new friends, and determining what they like to buy.  Still modulating my relationships, based on
political biases, but feeling ever confident that I'm on the right side of history. Â Email Kyle@CrystalConcentrics.com with any questions.
 Follow me on Facebook - scroll down to see the F icon - to join the fun...I repost videos from creators who are more eloquent than I...and hopefully you'll hear them in spite of the algorithm prefering to bury such content.
5. Resources: store, articles, blog, podcast, book...
Remember - while we do keep adding new items online - most of our product is OFFline. So it's best to email Kyle@CrystalConcentrics.com to avail yourself of our Quality Custom Crystal Mail Order service.
